Items related to The Family Blessing
Discover how the simple practice of blessing your family can transform their lives forever and, more importantly, change the fabric of your daily family life.
The practice of speaking a blessing on a child or other family member was very common among families in Bible times. When Jesus took children in His arms He placed His hands on them and blessed them. It was consistent with what He or any good father would have done throughout Scripture.
Giving a blessing in the Bible was an intentional act of speaking God's favor and power into another person. This loving act was often done while laying hands on that other person. Christian families today can receive the same benefits by adopting this ancient tradition, using it to help their children come to know and love God and be under His protection.
The Family Blessing provides parents and family members with practical ways to bless and encourage their family and children, but it is so much more than that. This book shows how the blessing of a loving life flows out of a relationship with God.
It is never too late, no matter what the past may look like, to pass blessings on to your children and family members - and to walk in the complete favor of God. Why not start today?

About the Author:
Rolf Garborg began his thirty-five year ministry in the Christian Publishing industry as a twenty-two year-old missionary in Puerto Rico selling books door to door. That meager beginning evolved into the establishment of a successful Christian bookstore and distribution center on the island, as well as the founding of Editorial Betania, a Spanish publishing house that continues today.
Review:
Upon returning to the United States in 1975, Rolf continued in leadership for a variety of publishing organizations before co-founding Garborg's, a Christian gift company. Since Garborg's was sold in 2001, he has begun Garborg & Asscoiates, a consulting company serving the Christian publishing and gift industries. Rolf's career has taken him to all fifty states and over eighty countries, providing him the opportunity to bless and be blessed the world over.
Rolf has been married for more than thirty years to Mary Garborg. They are blessed with two children and three grandchildren. Rolf and Mary currently reside in Minnesota.
Every night, as we tuck our six children into bed, we are asked, 'Can I have my blessing now?' As our babies grow up into young adults, they are continually reminded by their family blessing that they are loved by God, delighted in by their parents, and have a rich future awaiting them as followers of Christ. The tradition of a 'Family Blessing' as Rolf shares in this book, has become a priceless and vital part of our daily lives. --Kirk and Chelsea Cameron - Co-stars of the nationally syndicated hit, Growing Pains
